  2. Human body temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_body_temperature

    In humans, the average internal temperature is widely accepted to be 37 °C (98.6 °F), a "normal" temperature established in the 1800s. But newer studies show that average internal temperature for men and women is 36.4 °C (97.5 °F). No person always has exactly the same temperature at every moment of the day.

  3. Thermal comfort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_comfort

    Thermal comfort is the condition of mind that expresses subjective satisfaction with the thermal environment. [1] The human body can be viewed as a heat engine where food is the input energy. The human body will release excess heat into the environment, so the body can continue to operate. The heat transfer is proportional to temperature ...

  4. Cold and heat adaptations in humans - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_and_heat_adaptations...

    Body temperature varies in every individual, but the average internal temperature is 37.0 °C (98.6 °F). Sufficient stress from extreme external temperature may cause injury or death if it exceeds the ability of the body to thermoregulate. Hypothermia can set in when the core temperature drops to 35 °C (95 °F).

  5. Skin temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skin_temperature

    Skin temperature. Skin temperature is the temperature of the outermost surface of the body. Normal human skin temperature on the trunk of the body varies between 33.5 and 36.9 °C (92.3 and 98.4 °F), though the skin's temperature is lower over protruding parts, like the nose, and higher over muscles and active organs.

  6. Climate change - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Climate_change

    Over the last few million years human beings evolved in a climate that cycled through ice ages, with global average temperature ranging between 1 °C warmer and 5–6 °C colder than current levels. [38] [39] One of the hotter periods was the Last Interglacial between 115,000 and 130,000 years ago, when sea levels were 6 to 9 meters higher than ...

  7. Thermoregulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoregulation

    The average difference between oral and axillary temperatures of Indian children aged 6–12 was found to be only 0.1 °C (standard deviation 0.2 °C), and the mean difference in Maltese children aged 4–14 between oral and axillary temperature was 0.56 °C, while the mean difference between rectal and axillary temperature for children under 4 ...

  8. Global temperature record - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_temperature_record

    The global average and combined land and ocean surface temperature show a warming of 1.09 °C (range: 0.95 to 1.20 °C) from 1850–1900 to 2011–2020, based on multiple independently produced datasets. [30] : 5 The trend is faster since 1970s than in any other 50-year period over at least the last 2000 years.
